types of welding

Question

types of welding

Accepted Answer

There are several types of welding techniques used in production engineering.

Arc welding: Uses an electric arc to create heat and join metals.
Gas welding: Involves the use of a fuel gas and oxygen to create a flame for welding.
MIG welding: Uses a wire electrode and a shielding gas to create a weld.
TIG welding: Uses a tungsten electrode and a shielding gas to create a weld.
Spot welding: Joins two metal surfaces by applying pressure and heat through electrodes.
Flux-cored arc welding: Similar to MIG welding but uses a tubular wire filled with flux.
Submerged arc welding: Involves the formation of an arc between a continuously fed electrode and the workpiece under a layer of granular flux.
Resistance welding: Uses the application of electric current and pressure to create a weld.
Laser welding: Utilizes a high-powered laser beam to melt and join metals.
Electron beam welding: Uses a high-velocity electron beam to join metals.
